one of the points that we really felt was important to get across when you're talking about cause and effect as priorities if nobody's making money on it not a commodity then it has no value and it shouldn't it isn't a priority of the federal government so housing that was just some people that was not a commodity that was just a living up to their responsibilities of the federal government to people have a clean safe and place to live that's not important anymore that's not. george herbert walker bush when he doesn't have his own. water bush does.

homelessness that you have to have supportive housing yet we're not willing to prioritize that as siding in the crazy thing is that we're paying for it anyway we jail a homeless person is san francisco a cost $140.00 a night that's about what it costs and some. fairly nice hotels outside of the city yet we insist on believing that criminalization of almost this is the answer that if we push people who are being homeless and being mentally ill that they're going to cure themselves and be off the streets when in fact it just becomes a cycle. tearing

8:47 pm
ill by you. there is a specific population called women that are having very specific needs that are we going to listen to enough so you know we made it a priority and by that we pushed through in it any beds available to them or to listen to a year ago there were hardly any beds available for them and it's an unsafe for place for women to. tell our daughters to not walk in the street a lot at night in a dark that's the sort of imagine that you have no work to go. or know what i did when something. or were. were. in the us is being told in
8:48 pm
a quote to good way to figure out which song to beat your on is with yoko many planes on h.b.o. to. me shit like push workers calling for a much higher minimum wage workers at mcdonald's wendy's domino's pizza and more will want not the job. you were look at the federal 'd minimum wage is one created $938.00 under the fair labor standards act ok which was in response to a 1000000 people wandering our nation looking for jobs it was the same and after the depression congress got together and started to say well we should set a standard that ensures that if somebody puts their 40 hours in a week they can afford the basics so. it makes sense and makes sense to me it makes sense to you so we take that in a brace that good the problem is they never index to do anything so they just keep picking this number out of the year and those halves of congress fight over debate over it and go do that and that and it and it back and forth and so. you know maybe
8:49 pm
get raised a dollar maybe it's $0.75 whatever so we sort of started this problem backwards you know we now have $3500000.00 people experiencing homelessness in this nation and what we could tell that house the homeless. there's tremendous efforts to try and deal with the fallout you know. some more successful than others some different approaches like housing 1st get off the streets and then start dealing with them you know it's one you know we aus omes believes in that's a new organization says 989 so you know that's approach we are. and i used to look at this population as. who they are the breakdown the better and. recently released people out of the penal system single women single women with children substance abusers alcoholics. really really all the different
8:50 pm
factions but now we stood back and looked at the folly of that approach and realize that in order to really deal with it in this society which is couples we view them as. this whole this group falls 'd into 22 factions those who can work and those who can't work so we walk away with this way it's 77 dollars in the quarter and 'd but i i live in america and anybody who's lived in america has traveled anybody who's traveled is travel to some place which is more expensive than where they came from and they travel someplace with less expense right now the government uses the concept of one size fits all. they keep doing it's like 70 court for everybody so whether you lose in washington d.c. or whether you live in a harley engine texas they're going to set it to 7 decor right now there's talk of
8:51 pm
raising it to $10.00 an hour well the day that adds pass to $10.00 an hour that's the president is promoting for. something to get one minimum wage homeless worker off the streets of washington d.c. at the same time that $10.00 an hour wage is going to hurt small business and will america and make no mistake most of america is rule they're trying to push a round. peg in a square hole and they've been doing it over and over again and what happens is it's a very soft mork approach to our nation is made of a 1000. so nice you know we devised. a single national formula based on existing government guidelines.
8:53 pm
8:54 pm
oh you wouldn't do you. think let me ringback see do you can help me with it. forever even if you have. a little more. here. you will lose your money. so here the road home we have a family show for women shelter in them and shelter so one of the big fears that our families have when they come down from the shelter is that all of us are. child and family services is going to be involved in their getting their kids away i mean worked very closely with. the c.p.s. . we work very hard to reassure families that that that's not how it works their families are also subject to the whims of whether it's economic instability the or
8:55 pm
family instability or health problems. family is run out of resources and they're not able to stay in their apartment anymore or stay with family or stay with friends or stay in a hotel. but a lot of times by the time the families that walk through those doors they've exhausted all of those resources. how are you getting so wet child oh yes so we have this huge playground there's. you know they have the ramp for all of the kids the stuff like that and still are still. they have this grassy area over here we try to keep the kids away from the gate just because of the semen on because this is the men's side of the shelter we are slide in the playground for the kids and stuff like that. i've been on and off homelessness since having for the 1st 6 months of his life were stable and then i lost my job
8:56 pm
which intel lost my burman. but for you know for after that 6 months we did pretty well you know we stayed with friends here and there we stayed with family but it sank i kind of started to feel like i was a burden these people you know because then they have to deal with my kid having his little fits in this that. you know i got another job and i was paying for hotel rooms you know 2 weeks out of each page i could i just got really expensive really pricey so you get it you're just like all right well i'm going to keep doing it i'm going to do and i got to get up i got to work. only with having a kid a child with special abilities you kind of. you don't really get much time expression when you're a single parent you don't at all you're constantly on the go on doing this doing that picking up this picking up that it's. so you resort to of course a drug that makes you stay awake there isn't that surprisingly i got off it by
8:57 pm
myself i didn't go to rehab or anything i just kind of kicked it. i've been clean for 3 months. and we've been. there are about 150 beds in this large storm area. for families who have small children it will be like if it's a single mom in a small one or 2 year old will share one of these small little bunks. and each family is allowed one of these totes per person so this has to be able to fit basically all of your earthly belongings in it. and that's not a lot of space as you can tell. it's tough for families. and
8:58 pm
one of the great frustrations here in salt lake is that there's a substantial lack of affordable housing and so that's one of the barriers that clients have is finding a place that they can continue to afford after our assistance ends clients a lot of times face other barriers to getting housing whether it's on their criminal background or they have evictions from prior apartments and so it can sometimes be really difficult for clients to find a place to live that will accept them with their background or with the funding from the road home. to help them get out of the rut that their him.
8:59 pm
seemed wrong. but i'll. just tell all. let me. get to shape the out to stay active. and engaged with. the trail. when something is find themselves worlds apart. just to look for common ground. united states economy resembles to a large degree the economies of countries that the united states typically makes fun of you know the u.s. or the united nations will send aid and they'll send money to countries like say in africa for example not big on africa but it does happen where the money never gets distributed it just ends up if he did leaders of that particular country and then they become fabulously wealthy.
9:00 pm
